Graduate Art-Design Academy from Cluj-Napica, 2005.I work in photojournalism area about 15 years, for daily,weekly and magazines. My last personal work explores the dynamics of the man-environment relationship.On the one hand, the city dwellers perceives space pragmatically, and its denaturation-with industralization and everything it involves-inevitably leads to the social collapse of the individual; on the other hand, villagers in remote areas, facing depopulation and subject to a similar social challenges, have an entirely different way if relating to space and nature.The hibrid, stayned coexistence of natural living in harmony with environment and the dilapidated industrial structures with their apocalyptic geometries, this antagonism that defines the geography of present-day Romania, is the subject of this images.
